Abstract:
This book contains a selection of papers presented at the First
Forl� Conference on Interpreting Studies, held on 9-11 November
2000, which saw the participation of leading researchers in the
field. The volume offers a comprehensive overview of the current
situation and future prospects in interpretation studies, and in the
interpreting profession at the beginning of a new century. Topics
addressed include not only theoretical and methodological issues, but
also applications to training and quality. The range of subjects
covered is thus broad and comprehensive. Particular attention is given
to the changing profile of the profession, as different modes of
interpreting "outside the booth" - i.e. all forms of "dialogue
interpreting", as well as interpreting for the media - give rise to
new and stimulating research work.
